Welcome to River.ODP, your trusted building company serving the South East of England. With a commitment to excellence and a focus on customer satisfaction, we specialize in a wide range of home improvement services. Our expert team is dedicated to delivering high-quality craftsmanship in every project, from beautiful conservatories and orangeries to bespoke kitchens, bathrooms, and more.
At River.ODP, we work closely with our clients to bring their visions to life, ensuring each project is completed to the highest standards. Our services extend beyond the South East, reaching any corner of the UK if required. Trust River.ODP to transform your home with precision and care.
A large percentage of our clients approach us with remedial work requests. River ODP seeks to avoid such issues arising by holding exceptional standards in craftsmanship and professional ethics. Our respect for client relations and satisfaction is central to our success as a company. Transparency at all stages is just one way in which we safeguard this.
We started life working solely in the building and services sector, working for a huge array of privet individuals and companies alike. Still going from strength to strength after so many years we feel the need to share our wealth of knowledge in this often daunting confusing industry.
We’ve established the main issues our clients have: that’s finding someone trusted to undertake the work and sourcing the best quality products to suit a particular budget. We have worked with and used hundreds of suppliers and tradesmen and have found 95% let us/you the customer down. Our mission was to find the exceptional out of the bunch and only promote the 5% that don’t.
We pride ourselves on providing customers with highest quality products and excellent customer service. Transparency is key to any healthy successful business, we all need to be on the same page every step of the way to minimise anything untoward.
The quality of the products we use is of key importance to us, not only to achieve the desired aesthetic but also to insure longevity to the end product. We offer fully bespoke or pre fabricated, regardless we maintain strict quality control parameters using only the finest materials and tradesmen to suit.
Thanks to our personalised service, from the largest orangery to the smallest window our clients have total control over their project, with our team going that extra mile to help and guide them the entire way to achieve a flawless end result.
From the first contact, we locate the appropriate team member to discuss your project.
We provide an estimate and discuss the budget.​
If the quote is acceptable,
we can then discuss in detail, key aspects of the project. These will include management of timescale, other possible costs and hazard analysis to avoid the possibility of unexpected setbacks.
 The next step is to carry out a site visit and take measurements to provide an accurate quote.
River ODP will request the final payment only when the project is fully completed and the client is satisfied.
At River.ODP, we believe that great craftsmanship starts with a great team.
Our people are at the heart of everything we do, bringing years of experience, skill, and dedication to every project.
